Applications & use cases
Slow or weak hydraulics
A main or port relief valve that opens early or will not seat dumps oil to tank: the boom, arm or swing slows and loses force. Check pump pressure at the test port first.
Overheating oil
A relief valve that leaks past its seat turns pump flow into heat, so the hydraulic oil runs hot during normal work.
Pressure that will not set
If adjusting the relief screw no longer changes the pressure, the spring, poppet or seat is worn and the cartridge needs replacing.
Matching the old valve
Match the full part number stamped on the old cartridge, and set the pressure to the machine's service figure after fitting.
